A resolution requesting the university to stop flying the controversial flag passed 33-15-1 on Tuesday night.
Members of Ole Miss' Associated Student Body voted Tuesday night in favor of a resolution requesting the university stop flying the Mississippi state flag -- which has come under fire across the state and country for its inclusion of the Confederate battle emblem -- on its campus. The resolution passed by a vote of 33-15-1, according to The Daily Mississippian.
The resolution itself technically doesn't remove the flag -- it formally requests the university to do so. But given previous statements from school brass, it seems a forgone conclusion that they're all for this.
